The Children

Even though some of these children were babies, they all had to say a
final goodbye to their parents, brothers and sisters and make the
long train journey to England. The majority of them were never
reunited with their families who were murdered in concentration
camps. Some of the parents who did escape tell us of the harrowing
experience of letting their children go

By using
dramatisation we tell the true story of a laundry basket that was
hurriedly put on one of the trains as it pulled out of Munich station.
When the children in the railway carriage opened the strange basket
they found inside 2 sleeping babies, who didn't have travel papers
and like themselves didn't have parents

How did the children care for and feed these babies during the long
journey? What happened at the Dutch border, did the Nazi's let them
through or did they send the train full of children and the babies
back to certain death in Nazi Germany?
